A High-Throughput Energy-Efficient Implementation of Successive Cancellation Decoder for Polar Codes Using Combinational Logic

A High-Throughput Energy-Efficient Implementation of Successive Cancellation Decoder for Polar Codes Using Combinational Logic Abstract: This paper proposes a high-throughput energy-efficient Successive Cancellation (SC) decoder architecture for polar codes based on combinational logic. The proposed combinational architecture operates at relatively low clock frequencies compared to sequential circuits, but takes advantage of the high degree of parallelism […]


Multiplier less Unity-Gain SDF FFTs

Multiplier less Unity-Gain SDF FFTs Abstract: In this brief, we propose a novel approach to implement multiplierless unity-gain single-delay feedback fast Fourier transforms (FFTs). Previous methods achieve unity-gain FFTs by using either complex multipliers or nonunity-gain rotators with additional scaling compensation. Conversely, this brief proposes unity-gain FFTs without compensation circuits, even when using nonunity-gain rotators. […]
